Mike and I have been off from school this past week. On Saturday we decided to journey to the exciting city of Idaho Falls, Idaho and go to the Bodies exhibit at the Museum of Idaho. Now due to the fact that the bodies used are real people, photos are not allowed inside but it was a fascinating exhibit. The museum gives the opportunity for us to learn about each of the systems of our bodies. I have to say that my favorite part of the exhibit was the up close look at the fetal development at each stage of the pregnancy. For me this was so fascinating to actually be able to see the development of life and God's greatest creation.
However we also got to see different bodies dedicated to showing the respiratory and muscular systems which were just incredible to see how they look and how they function. It was also amazing to see each of our organs; my favorite was to see the heart and realize that that little organ powers our body.
The body is God's greatest creation and we got the opportunity to see it in an extremely intimate way. I left feeling amazed at the perfection that is the human body and how intimately the systems work together. It is amazing to see and experience. Our bodies truly our the greatest blessing we have received.
I should mention that Mike and I did not go alone to this exhibit. Our friend Jaime Reeser was leaving for home the next day meaning we won't get to see her til September. So when she texted me saying she was feeling better I asked her if she would like to escape with us and she happily said yes! and we happily took her :) It was a wonderful day and we had a lot of fun spending the day together before she had to leave. The three of us had fun experiencing the museum together and it was great to have Mike our anatomy expert with us...who needs a tour guide when we have Mike Epperson :)
I think that everyone should experience this exhibit. Its amazing to see :)
